Solution

Answer:

Given that

Total votes = 7200

Invalid votes = 25% of total votes, it means that total valid votes are 75% of total votes.

One candidate got 52% of the total valid votes it means that other candidate got 48 % of the total valid votes.

∴ Total valid votes = 7200× (75/100) = 5400 votes

∴ Other candidate got 48% of the total valid votes that is = 5400× (48/100)= 2592 votes

Mrs. Sinha spends 18% of her monthly income for the children’s education, 32% in household expenses, 12% in travelling and 25% in gambling and manages to save only Rs. 9, 405 at the end of the month. What is Mrs. Sinha’s monthly income?

Arvind after spending \(\frac{2}{5}th\) of his income saves the rest. Out of this saving he keeps 30% in the house and deposits the rest in the bank. If he deposited Rs. 2800 this month, what is his monthly income?

1.

Rs. 3333.33

2.

Rs. 4666.67

3.

Rs. 1176

4.

Rs. 6666.67

5.

None of these

Solution

Answer:

Let Arvind’s income be Rs. ‘x’, then according to the question,

⇒ He spends 2/5th of his income i.e (2/5) x.

⇒ His saving = Income – Expenditure

\(= x - \frac{2}{5}x = \frac{3}{5}x\)

Out of this saving he keeps 30% in house, so money kept at home = 30% of (3/5) x
